I'm afraid this is completely off-topic, but I'm running out of ideas.
Not had a response from alt.internet.wireless.
I recently bought an Acer Notebook to use when I'm working away and on
holiday. One of the main considerations was to have a number of Internet
connecting options, eg: LAN, 56k modem, blue-tooth, wi-fi.
1. I have successfully added it to my adsl router port 4 and been able
to do all the windows updates etc and surfed the net etc.
2. My second option is wi-fi. Now I've tried to connect to my Linksys
Wireless-G Access Point and all appeared fine at first ,saying excellent
connection 54.0Bps. Yet I am not recieving anything through it, no web
sites. I tried turning the firewall off, which made no difference. I
currently have it unencrypted. My daughter laptop works fine with it,
she does have a Linksys PCAI.. card fitted.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong, or what I may have overlooked.
My final option, which I haven't got all the bits for yet, is GPRS
through a mobile phone, I'll tackle that obstical when I've got over
this one g
Many thanks
